Do Schools Get their Money? PAISA 2014

Accountability Initiative (2015)

Between October and November 2014, PAISA went to over 14 thousand government run elementary schools across India to ask the following questions: Did you get your money? When did you get your money? Did you spend the money? And if so, what was the output of that expenditure? The PAISA survey is conducted as part of the annual ASER survey that tracks learning outcomes and is implemented entirely by citizen volunteers and civil society organizations. This makes it the first and only citizen led effort to track development funds. Do Schools Get Their Money? (PAISA Report 2014)" offers a snapshot of findings from the 2014 survey.
